[ b]Reflection**
Strengths: I definitely have a unique story which is what got me in. I was an international student living in China who came to America, who is Indian with family all over the world. I speak 4 languages, started a business.
Weaknesses: being and Indian girl, and my stats were really weak. A lot of business schools required a math, and I didn’t always send it in!
Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: my story!
Where else you are applying or have already applied: Got in to: UMich Ross pre-admit, NYU Stern, Berkeley, USC Marshall, UCSC, UCSB, UW Foster pre-admit, UCONN
General Comments/Advice/Hindsight: Honestly, I cried for weeks and weeks before admissions came out. I didn’t think I would get in anywhere, and I literally killed the college game and got into a bunch of schools despite odds against me! You guys got it
